The Louisiana Social Pledge

We pledge our allegiance to Louisiana. We will embrace what makes us and our state unique. Louisiana will be recognized as a leader and innovator of the New South. Many great leaders of the future will come from this state. And we will show both the media and politicians that we are smarter than them. We will no longer have our resources exhausted and our people used and left behind. We will work hard and play hard. We will protect each other. We will support each other. We pledge that we will do whatever we can to get these things in motion right now. We will no longer wait for a path to be cleared for us. We will clear the path ourselves. And we ain’t giving up easily. We will socialize in the real world just as well as we do on the internet…in hopes to organize ourselves effectively.

The Kiss (Joseph Michael Benoit-Iowa, LA)

Kiss me first
as you would kiss a Friend
then take the Time

to kiss me again
and I will Kiss you a Kiss
without Beginning or End

and Teach you new meanings
to Innocence and Sin

Now, take the Passion of that Kiss
and double it again, and again,
and once more, again

and, still, you will
not comprehend
the Hells I will go through
and have gone through, again

to see that you are safe,
and Happy, my Friend
even if we could never be as Lovers
for the first time
or ever, again
